<u>Answer:</u> The energy drawn by electric hair dryer is 2,98,800 J

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the power of the electric hair dryer, we use the equation:

P=I\times V

where,

P = power of electric hair dryer

I = Current of electric hair dryer = 8.3 A

V = voltage of electric hair dryer = 120 V

Putting values in above equation, we get:

P=8.3\times 120=996W

To calculate the energy of electric hair dryer, we use the equation:

E=P\times t

where,

E = energy of electric hair dryer = ?

P = Power of electric hair dryer = 996 W

t = time taken = 5.0 min = 300 s     (Conversion factor:  1 min = 60 sec)

Putting values in above equation, we get:

E=996\times 300=2,98,800J

Hence, the energy drawn by electric hair dryer is 2,98,800 J

Explain why an indicator is used in titration
stellarik [79]

Answer:

Titrations. Because a noticeable pH change occurs near the equivalence point of acid-base titrations, an indicator can be used to signal the end of a titration. When selecting an indicator for acid-base titrations, choose an indicator whose pH range falls within the pH change of the reaction.

Hope it helped!!

Find the empirical formula of the compound ribose, a simple sugar often used as a nutritional supplement. A 14.229 g sample of r
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

CH2O

Explanation:

Firstly, we need to convert the masses of the elements to percentage compositions. This can be done by placing the mass of each element over the total mass multiplied by 100% . We can start with carbon.

C = 5.692/14.229 * 100 = 40%

O = 7.582/14.229 * 100 = 53.29%

H = 0.955/14.229 * 100 = 6.71%

We then proceed to divide each percentage composition by their atomic mass of 12, 16 and 1 respectively.

C = 40/12 = 3.333

O = 53.29/16 = 3.33

H = 6.71/2 = 6.71

Dividing by the smaller value which is 3.33

C = 3.33/3.33 = 1

O = 3.33/3.33= 1

H = 6.71/3.33 = 2

The empirical formula of the compound ribose is CH2O

Consider the reaction given below.
Drupady [299]

Answer:

  • <u>K =  0.167 s⁻¹</u>

Explanation:

<u>1) Rate law, at a given temperature:</u>

  • Since all the data are obtained at the same temperature, the equilibrium constant is the same.

  • Since only reactants A and B participate in the reaction, you assume that the form of the rate law is:

        r = K [A]ᵃ [B]ᵇ

<u>2) Use the data from the table</u>

  • Since the first and second set of data have the same concentration of the reactant A, you can use them to find the exponent b:

        r₁ = (1.50)ᵃ (1.50)ᵇ = 2.50 × 10⁻¹ M/s

        r₂ = (1.50)ᵃ (2.50)ᵇ = 2.50 × 10⁻¹ M/s

         Divide r₂ by r₁:     [ 2.50 / 1.50] ᵇ = 1 ⇒ b = 0

  • Use the first and second set of data to find the exponent a:

        r₁ = (1.50)ᵃ (1.50)ᵇ = 2.50 × 10⁻¹ M/s

        r₃ = (3.00)ᵃ (1.50)ᵇ = 5.00 × 10⁻¹ M/s

        Divide r₃ by r₂: [3.00 / 1.50]ᵃ = [5.00 / 2.50]

                                  2ᵃ = 2 ⇒ a = 1

         

<u>3) Write the rate law</u>

  • r = K [A]¹ [B]⁰ = K[A]

This means, that the rate is independent of reactant B and is of first order respect reactant A.

<u>4) Use any set of data to find K</u>

With the first set of data

  • r = K (1.50 M) = 2.50 × 10⁻¹ M/s ⇒ K = 0.250 M/s / 1.50 M = 0.167 s⁻¹

Result: the rate constant is K =  0.167 s⁻¹

What type of energy has caused the fewest deaths per unit of energy produced?
mash [69]

Answer: Nuclear energy is by far the safest energy source in this comparison – it results in more than 442 times fewer deaths than the 'dirtiest' forms of coal; 330 times fewer than coal; 250 times less than oil; and 38 times fewer than gas.
